Correction: Access to gender-affirming hormones during adolescence and mental health outcomes among transgender adults

[This corrects the article DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0261039.].

• The sample of individuals ever desiring GAH appears incorrectly throughout the article as 21,598. The correct value is 21,578, now that those reporting access to GAH younger than age 13 have been excluded.
The following sentence has been added to the first paragraph of the Methods section: We additionally excluded any participants who reported accessing GAH prior to age 13, as this would represent an age lower than the current threshold mentioned in the most recent Endocrine Society Guidelines.

Descriptive statistics for transgender adults in the U.S. who ever wanted gender-affirming hormones (GAH) for their gender identity or gender transition, comparing those who never received this treatment (No GAH), those who accessed GAH between their 13 th and 16 th birthdays (GAH 13-15), those who accessed GAH after their 16th birthday and before their 18th birthday (GAH 16-18) and those who accessed GAH after 18th birthday (GAH � 18).
https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0287283.t001  Mental health outcomes of transgender adults who recalled access to gender-affirming hormones (GAH) during various age groups. Reference group for all analyses is those who desired GAH but did not receive them. All models adjusted for age, partnership status, employment status, K-12 harassment, and having experienced gender identity conversion efforts. Abbreviations: OR (odds ratio), aOR (adjusted odds ratio), 95% CI (95% confidence interval).
a Model also adjusted for gender identity, sex assigned at birth, sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, family support of gender identity, educational attainment, and total household income. b Model also adjusted for sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, educational attainment, and total household income.
c Model also adjusted for gender identity, sex assigned at birth, sexual orientation, race/ethnicity, family support of gender identity, educational attainment, total household income, having received pubertal suppression. d Model also adjusted for family support of gender identity. Only one participant in the GAH < 16 group endorsed a past-year suicide attempt requiring inpatient hospitalization, precluding calculation of an aOR for this outcome.
e Model also adjusted for gender identity, sex assigned at birth, sexual orientation, family support of gender identity, educational attainment, and total household income.
